I can't get an ID on this spider on my fence as it only shows it's underside but it's notable for the demonic smiley face on it's abdomen!

I had similar a few years ago but didn't tell the family as they'd have started flapping.

I recently met up with a gardener/ landscaper who had some lengths of various UK woods for various #bushcraft projects. One non-native he was keen to show me was Mahonia. When cut it reveals this vivid yellow.

This was a classic FA cup tie with a Premier league club playing at an astro turfed austere non-league ground. 0-0 at FT should have seen Tamworth get a lucrative replay but rule changes mean extra time which favours fitter elite players. Hmph.
